So I just bought my new bow yesterday, Got a Bowtech rpm 360, was shooting a high country speed pro 2009 before. I've always used a helical prior to this bow, The High country wasn't the easiest bow to tune in the world, I would get arrow arrow plane, and some zig zag from time to time. Anyway. I'm shooting carbon express red 350's right out of the box, currently pulling 75lbs @ 29" draw- straight fetching no helical field points and broad heads, G5, muzzy 3, rage practice head all dead nuts on out to 30 yards, haven't had a chance to shoot any farther. And I can't really see what my arrow is doing in flight because it's going so damn fast. Should I scape off the old fletchings and use my "Bohning Blazer Helix Fletching Jig " ????
I would do the blazer helix. Just got my gold tips done and they run perfectly for me. Dont know but im sure they will do just fine with your setup
I'm just wondering if it's shooting perfect with straight fletchings with three different broad heads, what am I getting out of the Helical. Wouldn't it be more of a hindrance then any help?
Helical fletching helps stabilize arrow flight. This is most commonly used with broadheads Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Here's a wealth of information on arrow technology: Carbon Arrow University - Basics & Measurement Standards
If your a good shot, you will be able to tell a difference in your group size. What it does is stabilize your arrow quicker. If your a 20-30 shooter don't worry about it, but if you're a 40-80+ shooter you want helical IMO. Sent from my IPhone 5S.
